Month: January 2012

  • Republican Candidates – a desperate bunch indeed (updated 13jan2012)

    George Rebane On the eve of the New Hampshire primary, they’re all chucking mudballs at the pack leader Romney no matter how many principles they have to discard or sully.  Romney was once in the business of restructuring failing and/or underutilized companies.  This required at times for him to downsize and restructure business units which…

  • Campaign 2012 Summarized

    George Rebane If you want to save yourself some time watching all the candidate debates and the endless primaries, then just grok the following graphic as an accurate summary of what we’ll be hearing from both sides until 6 November 2012.

  • Obamination #4,317: AT-6 Award to Brazil company

    George Rebane So much crap happens under the radar of our dysfunctional lamestream.  The Air Force is about to procure the new propeller-driven counter insurgency aircraft from a Brazilian company with connections to Soros, thereby leaving Hawker-Beechcraft of Wichita, Kansas high and dry.  They won’t even let the American company bid.  More here from Flying…

  • The Liberal Mind – It afflicts all levels

    George Rebane The guiles of socialism should never be discounted or ascribed to only this class/intellect or that.  As many others since then, the Bolshevik Revolution probably ate many of its own children when it applied overly simple rules for liquidating classes that were the designated enemies of the people.  For example, during the Russian…

  • Scattershots – 5 January 2012

    George Rebane •    Iowa produced a tie between Romney and Santorum (within counting error).  It still looks like Romney is stuck at the 25% level when he’s competing with a field of candidates.  This could change in New Hampshire where he is a part time resident.  The interest in the Republican race should continue to…

  • Wood fires (updated 29sep16)

    George Rebane We have always had lots of firewood and kept a fire going in the fireplace most of the year.  As a camper and backpacker, I have made a fire or two in the woods over the decades.  And I've often been asked about how I build and maintain a reliable and long-burning wood…

  • The Liberal Mind – A culture-free universal morality

    George Rebane In discussions on these pages during the last months a new aspect of the liberal mind has revealed itself.  It has always been there, but those of us not blessed with the thinking abilities of the liberal mind seem to overlook this strong characteristic of progressive thought.  And this is that there exists…

  • New Year’s Prognostications – A Fantasy

    George Rebane Perhaps at no other time, save at the turn of an election year, are we exposed to so many predictions and prognostications about the future.  Unfortunately, for the careful listener these are for the most part useless noises that convey little information beyond confirming that the pundits believe that their interviewers and audiences…
